Finding More Focus in a Qualitative Study

You must always consider the research method you plan to use when collecting your data. This can have an impact on how you proceed. The five research approaches can vary in the variety of information collected, the scope of the issues, and the invasiveness of the data collection effort.

Locate a qualitative DBA doctoral study from the Walden library. Review the methodology section and compare and contrast the design and the method with the information you have learned from the Creswell course text.

Analyze and discuss the recursive relationship between research methods and data collection techniques and how that can help to bring focus to your study.

You must follow APA guidelines. References should be from 2012 up to 2016.

Articulating Your Business Problem Statement

In the beginning of a design for study, a qualitative researcher should start by introducing a business problem statement. The objective of this statement is to provide the motivation for studying a particular area of interest. A business problem statement is a clear portrayal of the issues that will need to be addressed within your research.

This week, you will have the opportunity to solicit the assistance of your colleagues in refining and honing your initial business problem statement into a viable, researchable statement.

• Write a first draft of a business problem statement and post it to the Discussion board.

You must follow APA guidelines. References should be from 2012 up to 2016
